The Wisconsin Journal of Education
says that a number of public spirited
ladies in Milwaukee have formed an
organization called the Milwaukee
Public School Cooking Association, ,
and petitioned the School Board of the
city for the use of such room or rooms
as may be designated in the seventh
ward school building to be used in
giving free instructions in cooking and
domestic economy. They propose to
furnish a first class teacher for the
work, to maintain strict order and
discipline, and to work under the sur.
Vigilance of the principal of the school
and of the city superintendent. The
council have conceded to them the
use of the necessary rooms, and the
instruction is to be furnished without
cost to the pupils of the public schools
of the city. The experiment is an
interesting one and will be watched
with Solicitu de.

HIRoNs.-At the Northwestern
House in this city, on Tuesday
evening, Sept. 9th, 1857, Mr.. X.
<. Hirons, of Typhoid fever in his
thIrtieth year.
Mr.. Hirons was attacked by the
fatal disease about three weeks ago.
1t ran its course, and during the lat
ter part of last week signs of i'm.
provement were apparent and it
was believed that he would survive.
On Tuesday, however, he grew
gradually worse until he passed
away at 9:3o p. m.
He came to Audubon county some
five years ago and during his resi-.
dence has cultivated an extensive &C.
quaintance throughout this and adj
joining counties, by reason OF his
occupation as solicitor. He was q
young man OF good and independ.
ent character, upright in his dealings,
and enjoyed the confidence OF all.
In his last illness he was attended
by kind friends who exercised every
power to alleviate his suflerings and
and if possible to nurse him back to
health in which he was so strong
and vigorous.
The funeral was held on Wednes-
day, at , p. M, under the auspices
of the Good Templars lodge Of
which deceased was an honored and
respected member, Rev. ]. u. Har-
ris delivering the funeral sermon.
The remains were inferred in Maple
Grove cemetery.
1t is believed that the former resi-.
dence Of the deceased was at Buffalo,
N. Y, though It has been found i'm.
possible to communicate with his
relatives, as there Is nothing in his
effects to designate their location.
He visited at Buffalo last winter,
presumably with relatives but their
exact whereabouts can only be as
certaned by com nunication with the
authorities.
